That’s my point of contention. At this scale, it doesn’t fit with the vast mayority of collections out there. However, it appears that Sideshow is trying to revive the 1/5 comiquette market as they did with the Adam Hughes collection.

Depending on price, I'm looking forward to displaying this with my Adam Hughes She-Hulk.

She’s a tall lady. Is a 1/5 She-Hulk about the same height as a 1/4 most other females?

I mean, I’m confused at your dislike of this piece. Other than the base element, it’s a perfect representation of She-Hulk. Less sexual? I mean, she is in a one piece leotard which is true to her comic outfits. And she had always had fun shoes or boots.

There is not liking a piece. Then there is not liking a piece for no logical reason. This is 100% sexy Shulky.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

There are a lot of statue buyers nowadays that aren’t familiar with the comics. I will admit I haven’t read comics for awhile now but I do know that’s how She-Hulk looks sometimes. There were tons of people that didn’t even have a clue why there were dolphins with Lobo from P1. This statue looks good to me with the only issue being the scale.

As She Hulk she is 6'7" so if my math is right her at 1/5 is the same as someone 5'3" at 1/4 scale.

A taller base would’ve helped.

she looks great, too bad this 1/5 line will most likely continue to be overpriced
